Trait overdispersion in dragonflies reveals the role and drivers of competition in community assembly across space and season
Our understanding of how biotic interactions influence animal community assembly is
largely restricted to local systems due to the difficulty of obtaining ecologically meaningful …

Patterns of co‐occurrence and body size in dragonflies and damselflies (Insecta: Odonata) in preserved and altered Amazonian streams
Interspecific interactions, such as competition, are among the key factors that determine the
distribution, abundance and diversity of organisms in natural communities of aquatic …

Functional traits predict species co‐occurrence patterns in a North American Odonata metacommunity
The probability of occurrence of a given species in a target locality and assemblage is
conditioned not only by environmental/climatic variables but also by the presence of other …

Making the competitive exclusion principle operational at the biogeographical scale using fuzzy logic
In biogeography the competitive exclusion principle (CEP) has been confirmed in some
cases but not in others. This has fueled an unresolved debate between those advocating …

Bivoltinism in Coenagrion mercuriale (Zygoptera: Odonata) in the southern margin of its distribution range : emergence pattern and larval growth
Voltinism is an important life history trait that varies with the environment. In temperate
zones, insect populations take a substantially longer time to reach the adult stage in the …
